I was thinking it might be easier to cobble up new rudders and elevators and make a G.Va, and I kinda like the dragon marking on G.Va 723/17.

Still, the cat's out of the bag now, (and coincidentally back from the Vet.) So thanks to Dave Berry and Matt Bitner, I *think* I've sorted the problems out. I also added a 'work in progress' section - currently a 1:72 Ruston Proctor Camel in very special colours, and I've put the missing GIF image of the Swallow wing back where it should be - OK Pedro ? If the Hansa Brandenburg pictures don't load right now, I may shoot myself.

No, not that kind, this is a On Topic question. In the de Vries on the Taube, on page 76. it states the following under Coloring Notes: "Taubes were generally covered with "ballon cloth", a light linen like fabric that was sealed on the outside with a rubberized substance. Since few were painted, the final appearance was an uneven, streaked, mottled greyish-brown color that dirtied easily." Pretend you were building this kit. What color would you paint your model? One question. If you plane is streaked, mottled greyish brown in color, how could you tell it was dirty? I checked the Pegasus web site and the kit is shown in CDL off the show room floor. I'm afraid I'm at a loss as to what color to paint this kit.

The only pictures I have which show it as fairly dark are the ones taken while it was being dismantled in 1940. The picture I scanned for the homepage shows the Taube "Start" on a concrete ramp. It looks lighter than the concrete surface underneath, aircraft has an even finish, with ribs clearly visible on top, especially where the covering is single surface. The finish appears to be quite even on all Taube pictures, including the metal parts. Looking at different Tauben, there seem to be some considerable different colours: Jeanin, Albatross and DFW Taube, quite dark Rumpler 3C, dark with black numbers on a square painted white for added contrast. Rumpler 3F and Geest Taube, very light compared to the others. With a multitude of different Tauben built by different factories, I would think it is likely to have different materials and coverings, so pick a colour you like...

Okey dokey, so you want to get the streakiness caused by uneven take up in the threads. Mmmm, try drybrushing with a little damper than usual brush loaded with a translucent mix of fabric colour and Future. Do it twice, once along the bolt, and again across it.

A kind of all in one process. I will let you know how this goes. I have a brush that is shaped like a fan works great for putting down grain on wood. I will use this to get it with one pass lightly over the top. I also picked up some Invisible thread and have discovered the joy of rigging with it. This level of detail may seem extreme, but I have always wanted to do a WWI subject. I have avoided doing on because I always thought my skill were not up to par to even try. Now I am having the time of my life working with all this new stuff. rob johnson Shane Weier wrote: > > Rob, > > > They are faded and reversed. What they lack is the look of printed > > fabric.
